My forehead sticks out way too much; it's not even human. Is this normal? I usually don't see many people with a forehead this prominent. My forehead has too much of a convex bulge and I would like to make it as flat as possible. How flat can you make the forehead?

You need an examination to better understand what is possible with cosmetic surgery.

IF the bulge is caused by the front wall of the frontal sinuses and not the brain wall. An X-ray gives us the answer.
